![]() Von Sydow and Ullmann are in sync as oppositional lovers, which is to say that the former communicates Johan’s devolving madness with his alternately hunched-over and explosive body and barking delivery of guilt-tripping dialogue, while Ullmann’s wide-open, devastated face makes clear her anguish and pain at their strained relationship. They’re menacingly spooky and come to life in the form of aristocratic neighbors who unnerve Johan and Alma and whose grotesquerie, both physical and emotional, begins to destroy the couple’s marriage. An insomniac burdened in particular during the “hour of the wolf” before dawn, Johan speaks to his wife, Liv Ullmann’s Alma, about the “flesh eaters” he can’t stop sketching. ![]() “Hour of the Wolf” unfolds, jaggedly and unrelentingly, like an increasingly realistic nightmare of which von Sydow’s character, painter Johan Borg, is the sole architect and the primary victim. Von Sydow’s ability to vacillate between unquenchable anger and paternalistic benevolence was honed further in a partnership with Bergman that would last through 10 more films, including two entries in Bergman’s “Silence of God” trilogy (1961’s “ Through a Glass Darkly” and 1963’s “ Winter Light”) and the director’s only straightforward horror, 1968’s “ Hour of the Wolf,” which David Lynch has cited over the years as an influence on his own filmography. That array of earthly delights fills a spiritual void, a satisfaction von Sydow demonstrates with a genuine, peaceful smile-before Block is led by Death in the Danse Macabre, and to his final end. The only joy Block ultimately feels is not in a kinship with or understanding of God, but from sipping a bowl of fresh milk and eating a handful of just-picked strawberries. Later, when speaking with the young Mia ( Bibi Andersson) about whether her son will grow up to be a knight, von Sydow replies with dry bemusement, “That’s not such fun, either,” and the boredom Block feels in response to himself is quite clear. I live now in a world of ghosts, a prisoner in my dreams”) and resentful accusation (“I want God to put out his hand, show His face, speak to me!”). Before a statue of Jesus, von Sydow’s moves between fragile honesty (“My indifference to men has shut me out. Desperate for answers from God but increasingly aware that he might never get them, Antonius is prone to lengthy bursts of confession, and von Sydow’s impassioned delivery but easy smile communicate a man deeply at odds with himself. Ekerot’s image, pale and swathed in black, has been adapted and parodied in the decades since the film’s release, but it is von Sydow’s face, chiseled and shadowed, that holds the film. A recipient of the prestigious Royal Foundation of Sweden’s Cultural Award, von Sydow continued to receive acclaim for his theater work-in particular “The Tempest’s” Prospero, a role he would return to three decades later at London’s The Old Vic-before transitioning long-term to film in 1957 with Bergman’s “The Seventh Seal.”Īs the existentially pained knight Antonius Block, von Sydow is youthful but long-faced, unfulfilled but ruggedly handsome, barely hiding a smirk when he challenges Bengt Ekerot’s cloaked Death to a game of chess-the loss of which, Block knows, would mean that he owes Death his life. Once von Sydow had served for two years in the Swedish military and swapped his given first name Carl for Max, he trained for three years with Stockholm’s Royal Dramatic Theatre. At 15 or 16, he told The Wall Street Journal in 2012, he knew what his career path would be. Born in Lund, Sweden, on April 10, 1929, von Sydow was drawn to acting after taking in a performance of Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” at a municipal theater during a school field trip.

![]() We took the Shaken & Stirred cocktail class and this was our favorite experience on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. You can take a tour or participate in their cocktail class at this very modern distillery. This distillery is the first “Napa Valley style destination” that combines bourbon tasting with culinary expertise. I recommend tasting the Blood Oath and the Ezra Brooks. In the lobby of Lux Row, there is a small bar where you can sample the higher end whiskeys or have a cocktail. Not only did other visitors to the Kentucky Bourbon Trail rave about the whiskeys at Lux Row, but also the guides that we spoke to at other distilleries. We loved everything we tasted, and we are not the only ones with this opinion. That’s the whole reason you are here, right? Rarely did we taste three or four whiskeys at one distillery and like all of them. The highlight of any tour is the tasting. At Lux Row, the first few rows of the rickhouse are removed, forming a small “lobby.” Standing here, you get to appreciate just how many barrels sit on the shelves of a rickhouse. The smell inside of a rickhouse is amazing…bourbon, vanilla, with hints of spice…it’s delicious. We took the one-hour tour and the visit to the rickhouse was one of the highlights. This was another one of our top experiences on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. Lux Row produces Rebel Yell, Ezra Brooks, Blood Oath, and David Nicholson whiskeys. ![]() This is one of the newest distilleries on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. This makes the perfect souvenir to bring home. In the gift shop, you can personally hand-dip a Maker’s Mark bottle of bourbon in red wax. The entire tour was fascinating, entertaining, and dare I say inspiring? For one hour we walked through the property, learned the history behind the making of Maker’s Mark, tasted the sour mash right out of the distilling vats, and ended with a tasting. We took the first tour at 9 am on a chilly Saturday morning. One lane roads snake through the hills and farms, and Tim and I were wondering if we were going to the right place! Seemingly in the middle of nowhere is the beautiful property of Maker’s Mark. To get to Maker’s Mark you will drive through rural Kentucky. If you visit one distillery on the Bourbon Trail, make sure it is Maker’s Mark. The tour gives a fabulous insight to the making of bourbon, the property is gorgeous, the history behind Maker’s Mark is intriguing, and the bourbon is delicious. This was our favorite tour on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail for several reasons. For an amazing experience, make sure you visit Maker’s Mark. ![]() Ughh, just venting here because it's a decent enough game but this small shit is adding up and making it a super annoying game to try and playthrough. Then the hitbox on my pole axe/spear what have you, winds up behind me but if the enemy is not in front of me it whiffs even though that animation is all up on their sprites. Not to mention this enemy, along with others, have actions that fire off immediately with almost no wind up, leading to me dancing back and forth for a minute at a time trying to bait out the one move in their repetoire that has a half frame recovery period where I can poke them once for 12 damage. I keep getting killed in this area I'm in because this enemies 1 handed axe has greater range than my pole axe. Next up my guy is using a long ass pole axe that has the range of a dagger. Gotta be standing still then move after the throw or else they're all mlb stars with pinpoint accuracy. Oh you see they're about to throw something, roll behind them, they'll yeet behind them and peg you 100% of the time. Except they all have 100% accuracy and that even holds true if they're throwing behind them. ![]() Game is ok, but man are there so many tiny little things that are just annoying as fuck here.įirst off we have enemies that throw things, ok, that's normal. Transmutation allows you to convert a Weapon, Shield or Armor into another of the same type using the remains of Bosses and Enemies.So, got it for free on epic, playing through and wanted to post something here. ![]() To transmute weapons you have to speak with The House of Splendor Chemist. The following items can be traded in batches of 3 for either a: Lilyred Wine, Iris Wine, Goldenwine or 2x Cleansing Cloth To increase your Devotion with The House of Splendor you must turn in remains at any Stone Leader. Cran's Pass, accessed via the Red Hall of Cages entrance:Īt the end portion of the Red Hall of Cages, below the Despondent Thief first Shadowflip Brand walls, three sets of spinning wheel platforms lead forward to the area hoping on the first one, and jumping to the right, a platform leads to a hidden wall, that opens up to a pathway with a Stone Alchemist at the center, past it and at the opposite end, the Creed resides.The members of this Creed's therefore, are given ample ways to seek more gold and the Creed's devotion rewards, such as Goldenwine, that provides additional buffs to both attack and defense, as well as additional gold find, gives both attackers and Tanks-alike, extra support, with the only trouble being a rather sparse across the mid-game, Devotion Upgrades. Nameless cannot one-two shot you through upgraded titan armour. They also provide plenty, although expensive items with the Merchant selling rare and high level upgrade materials with also, their unique items such as the Axe of Splendor and two armor sets, the Mask of Splendor and the Resplendent Set with the weapon and head pieces, granting extra gold finding. In my first playthrough (not the NG+) I used the Gangplank mantlet shield (its a class 1 tower shield, weight 22), but I forgot how exactly did I defeat the Nameless god in the first time, so I dont know if this shield can be useful. The Creed offers consolation with their Wines so intoxicating that they cause Poison damage if drank too fast, however, the damage is minimal and moderation can be used to prevent it. They are a secretive, reserved and unusual hedonistic creed, that revolves around finding splendor in the gifts The Prophet and The Fool gave to them gathering as much gold as possible and enjoying the warmth of wine, despite being afflicted by Greyrot. It is one of the four additional creed choices, the Saltborn is able to find throughout the Island. The House of Splendor is a Creed in Salt and Sanctuary. But a face of gold knows none of these flaws." The face of man is bound by the flesh of man: imperfect, ephemeral, and rotten. I still cannot get used to my days without you. If we always keep communicating and then our friendship will become much stronger every day. Remember that I am always thinking of you.įriends are like a second family, do not let the distance or lack of time keep you away from them. I want to tell you that no one could replace you because you are still my favorite friend, and I hope to see you soon. Not even the greatest distance can end a friendship as beautiful as ours, I am sad you are so far away but I know that we will always be very close. It’s those memories that keep us connected forever!ĭon’t measure the distance by the length of a meter or a mile but in terms of our hearts. People may move from one place to another, but memories stay in the same place forever, that is in our hearts. Since you are away from me, my days are spent thinking of you and remembering the moments we have shared together! I hope you are thinking of me too. Our friendship will grow stronger every time we think of them. We may not share the same space anymore but we have shared some of the most colorful memories in our lives together. We are friends for life and always will be! Our friendship will always grow stronger regardless of the distance that separates us or the time that passes. We will always be on each other’s thoughts as long as there is a word called friendship in the dictionary! But deep in our hearts, we two are so strongly connected that nothing can tear us apart. We may not have each other’s company every day like before. Thanks for being my friend, wherever we are in the world. Throughout my life, everyone could see the tears in my eyes but only you could feel the pain in my heart. Long-distance friendship is the strongest one. We should remember and care about our friends not only while we’re together, but when they’re far away. Morning or night, best friends make everything alright. Sunshine or rain, friends always soothe the pain. ![]() Whatever happens and wherever we are, I’ll always treasure you because I know I’ll never have another friend like you. ![]() I’m lucky I was given a chance to meet someone like you. ![]() Me parece que Phoenix Rising no tiene razón de ser, yo admiro mucho el trabajo de Evan Rachel Wood, pero después de este documental no se si me agrada tanto como persona, polariza sus problemas superficiales para hacer empatizar más al espectador con la carga "tan" grande por la que tuvo que pasar. Donde a pesar de hacer una crítica sobre Marylin Manson termia siendo la mejor parte de el mismo documental, mostrando la excéntrica vida de el mismo, pareciendo hacer ver al espectador que cualquiera con un sentido común mínimo no hubiera salido con el después de la primera cita, y ahí es donde esta mi principal problema con esta narrativa, por un lado yo creo en la palabra de ella, pero por otro en el que más avanza el documental no vez una razón clara por la cuál seguían saliendo, pareciendo que ocultan la vida cotidiana de ellos dos para solo enfrascarse en lo malo con al menos yo no comprado la excusa 'mental' que el manejaba sobre ella solo dejando ver una relación tóxica por ambos lados en el contexto que no llega a tapar el gran ego de Evan. Dejando la moraleja de 'Si no estas de acuerdo con ella estas equivocado', queriendo hacer que reflexiones de ella en secuencias innecesariamente novelescas en las que deja ver su "vulnerabilidad". Two recent productions that deal with uncomfortable racial truths return for encores.Me parece que es muy difícil hacer una crítica a esta mini serie porque va más allá de una visión o un POV sobre algún acontecimiento es un movimiento social con el que muchos pueden estar de acuerdo y otros tantos no, yo en querer siempre estar en medio de ambos 2 puntos que entiendo y respeto, me encontré con una estructura narrativa que busca manipular la visión del espectador y siempre ver a la protagonista desde un lugar muy oscuro, siempre victimizar a la 'víctima' de Marylin Manson, aunque en sus casi 3 horas de duración no muestran una muestra calar del abuso físico y mental que él le provocó, y claro que no dudo de Evan Rachel Wood, pero me parece que siempre busca magnificar las cosas malas de su relación, mostrando a una Evan Rachel Wood que siempre busca llamar la atención, como en varios momentos se deja ver en el documental, tanto en realizar este mini documental o con acciones en todos los que la rodea, yo no encuentro el caso en hacer un documental incriminatorio hacia una persona sin ningún tipo de pruebas, donde gracias a su larga duración se dan hasta el tiempo de contradecirse ellos mimos. Thomas Traum directed the trailer for Dragon Spring Phoenix Rise, with TRAUM INC handling all production, art direction and VFX. In “Underground Railroad Game,” written and performed by Jennifer Kidwell and Scott R. ![]() Sheppard, a chipper lesson from two middle-school teachers on America’s sins transforms into a sadomasochistic fantasia. Dragon Spring Phoenix Rise tells the story of a secret sect in Flushing, Queens, that possesses the magical power to extend human life, and the twin brothe. The show, last seen in New York in 2016, comes to Ars Nova’s new downtown home, at Greenwich House, starting May 30. The battle between and among the steam car, the electric and the gas car was fought out in the first couple of decades of the twentieth century. After a sold-out run at the SoHo Rep this past summer, Jackie Sibblies Drury’s “Fairview,” which won this year’s Pulitzer Prize for drama, moves to the Polonsky Shakespeare Center, starting June 2 a matryoshka doll of racial perception, the play steamrolls the fourth wall as an African-American family throws a birthday party. This book explores the ins and outs of that battle. A struggle from which the gasoline car emerged completely victorious. An all-black phoenix tattoo will obviously look gorgeous.

These include multi-device synchronization and upgraded calling features, allowing users to operate the app on their PCs, independent of their phone's power status. In its recent updates, the app has introduced several innovative features. This contrasts with other messaging platforms like LINE, which utilize a one-time password method, ensuring message security while not compromising the desktop experience in scenarios such as a depleted phone battery. In instances where the mobile device is powered off, access to the desktop version is hindered. However, a notable limitation is its reliance on a continuous connection with the user's mobile device. This desktop version enhances user experience by incorporating settings for native desktop notifications, making it more accessible and user-friendly. The app, bearing resemblance to its web-based counterpart, offers the distinct advantage of allowing users to engage in chat sessions without the need to launch a web browser. All the features that you use for texting individuals are also available in group chats. If you’re a social person, you’ll be happy to note that the app lets you create multiple groups of over 250 members. That means that you can safely send private texts to your confidants. Messages that you send via this application are protected with end-to-end encryption by default. It’s a handy tool that you can use to send texts, record and share voice messages, send images, videos, and documents, express with emoticons and GIFs, and do much more! The only drawback here is that, unlike the Android and iOS versions, the PC version doesn’t let you make audio or video calls yet. The latest version of WhatsApp for Windows lets you stay in touch with your contacts even when you’re working on your PC. What are the features of WhatsApp 64-bit for PC? Since the app tends to refresh every few days, you may have to scan the QR code again-but doing that doesn’t take more than a few seconds. Once the scanning is complete, both the apps will sync, and you’ll be able to access your entire chat history, images shared, emoticons, and contact list from your desktop or laptop. Use your smartphone’s WhatsApp Web option to scan the QR code. The first time you launch WhatsApp for Windows, it’ll open to a blank screen with a QR code. Clicking on the latter will show you the Whatsapp Web option needed to open your newly-made account on your PC. ![]() When the setup is complete, the app will show you a chat window and a hamburger menu. ![]() As soon as the app gets installed, it’ll ask you to enter your phone number to create an account.Īfter that, you’ll be able to enter your details, such as your name and profile status, and will be able to customise various aspects of the app as per your preference. If you’re a new user, you will first have to download WhatsApp on your mobile device. However, as mentioned earlier, you won’t be able to start using the application instantly. Once you download WhatsApp for PC, you’ll come across an installation window that’ll do all the work. To find the QR code scanner on your smartphone, select the WhatsApp Web option from the app’s menu. Apart from this, the app will only work if your computer and your smartphone are connected to the internet and within range. However, to begin using the software on your Windows PC, you will have to create an account from your phone and then scan the QR code that appears on the screen. WhatsApp for desktop is available for 64-bit operating systems and provides users with an easy way to continue conversations even from their laptops. As more and more users began using the app for texting and video calling, the company started releasing the app for different platforms. WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging apps in the world. In addition to this, WhatsApp download offers end-to-end encryption, group chat functionality, a wide range of emoticons and GIFs, status update feature, and more. As a cross-platform app, it syncs texts across devices-irrespective of whether you’re using it from your PC or Android smartphone. WhatsApp 64-bit for Windows is a free messaging application that lets users connect with friends and family around the world. There is a music section, and the current feature is Summer Music selections. ![]() The episodes are actually organized by sections, so following is more in context than just clicking on the next podcast on the list. Even the Bible in a Year podcast by Father Mike Schmitz is included in this app. ![]() There are three main types of prayer Hallow provides: Daily Examen, Christian Meditation and Lectio Divina, with categories including: Daily Prayers such as the rosary and the Stations of the Cross, short Reflections, Gospel readings and reflections, spiritual reading, readings of the saints, praying with music, praying with children, and so much more. It always takes me back to the home screen. It’s not that easy to navigate, nor does the app remember where I was after I close one area. There isn’t a clear list of categories, which is fine, but it takes some time to use it. And Hallow not only can help build one’s mental health, but it’s also helping build a relationship with Christ! I realized that this Catholic app can really excel (and replace) the highly marketed Calm and Sensa apps. The sleep and stress aspect surprised me, but after asking around to family members who already use the app, that was the first reason they started using the app, and have been hooked since. One of the answers was for better sleep and another to reduce stress. There are questions as to what are your reasons for using the app. On the leading page, there is a short questionnaire to help you set up the app. I personally prefer having how and why pages, but that probably is a reflection of my age. I have since found that if you go to the website there is an “How to Pray” page that has multiple explanations on each aspect of prayer that is found on the app. ![]() I prefer reading my instructions first before I start, so I really didn’t want to spend more than 20 minutes listening, trying to find my way around. There are 9 sessions that walk through samples of the 3 methods of prayer: Christian Meditation, Examen and Lectio Divina. The only option is a section entitled “Not sure where to start?” which provides an Intro to start with the basics. The home screen doesn’t provide a written “how to use the app” section. Initially I did not find the app very intuitive. Hallow aims to replace the negative with positive sounds, and fill those empty spaces with something beautiful for God. The app provides for the auditory sense beautiful and meditative sounds in a world that is loud, fast-paced and anxiety-filled. The images are simple, and text while sometimes offered to read along isn’t always available, leaving the strength to the audio. The delivery of most of the app’s information is through audio bytes. There is less emphasis on recitation of prayers and more opening for conversation with God. Hallow encourages putting aside time for God throughout the day. But the greater emphasis here is listening. ![]() Hallow is an app that gives the tools for people to slow down and put God in their daily lives, and learn what real prayer is-being in the presence of God, listening and talking with Him. I’ve been using the app for a week so I can really get the feel of it and incorporate it into my daily life. The Hallow App claims to be the “#1 Catholic Meditation, Prayer and Sleep App.” There is a free 2-week trial option, and a choice to pay for monthly starting at $8.99, with some current annual deals running at $4.99 a month. I usually use free or low cost apps, so I was eager to see if I could fit Hallow in my already full routine, and would it be a supplement or a substitute for what I have, or perhaps both? I love being able to listen to Mass readings, the Divine Office, have spiritual reading and music at my fingertips. The smart phone, iPad or computer can be utilized as a help to prayer, rather than a hindrance. I’m a regular iPhone user, and have written a few posts in the past about how I find apps and different technology that help our liturgical living and prayer life keep flowing (See Mid-Lent Technology Helps to Avoid Slump and Summer More Time for the Lord, Not a Vacation from Him and Angelus Bells).
